Okay, I didn't know today was going to be a crazy day for me. As it turns out, 3 HUGE things happened because that's my life...nothing, and then EVERYTHING. I'll tell you about the other two later. Right now, let's talk about the completely shocking one!

HOLY. FREAKING. AWARD. NOMINATIONS!

Utopia Con announced their nominees for their
7th annual book awards. Secondborn is nominated in 6 categories!!
Okay, I'm going to level with you--I never saw this coming. I know you'll think I'm just saying that, but it's true. It's unusual for lightning to keep striking. Publishing is a tough industry.

There are so many amazing authors, so to be in this position again is complete insanity. You've given me awards for the Premonition and Kricket series. Thank you for ALL of those.
With your votes, maybe lightning will strike again for Secondborn!
